African Traders in China and Chinese Traders in Senegal

Daouda Cisse, research fellow at the Centre for Chinese Studies at Stellenbosch University, published in June 2013 two papers dealing with African migration to China and Chinese migration to Africa.  One paper, titled "South-South Migration and Trade: African Traders in China" explores the different types of traders from Africa in China, offers insights on their role in China-Africa trade and provides recommendations to Chinese authorities for engaging them.  The other paper titled "South-South Migration and Trade: Chinese Traders in Senegal" looks at the patterns and challenges of Chinese small traders' activities in Senegal.
